Ha, I fly to Egypt on Wednesday morning and have not even found my suitcase yet!

I'm only going to Cambridge to stay at my sister's for a few days but by the look of the weather forecast I might need my skis to get across coldhams common.
Lot's of nice jobs lined up down there though in nice warm shopping centres and a double fee supermarket that nobody ever takes usually.
I wonder if my sister fancies some baguettes

Anyone tried to reschedule GR jobs out of hours?

I can't remember the timeframe of the accessories and torso jobs I put for this afternoon - I can probably get there on the bus but I'm feeling really unwell and being stuck in the snow doesn't appeal. Also got a drive thru Gap that ain't gonna happen, there's no grit on my road and I'm not going anywhere in the car for that measley fee.

Should be much better to do the GR shops tomorrow, think in light of the snow I can reschedule them for then? Just don't know what to do as I can't get hold of anyone... wish you could reschedule automatically within the timeframe like Gap grrrr

If you send GR a message through their online system they should hopefully pick it up before they get deallocated.

All the snow has gone here now and it's sunny and up to 7°C outside.

Most of Dundee was pretty clear- just a bit to the north of the town and also a bit higher up (which is where I am ) so I've done them and back in the cosy now

roads not too bad midlands way although plenty of snow and sludge on the footpaths and carparks

glad im not in slovakia at the moment, my friends run a ski/snowboard chalet and this is what their van said a few days ago... it had gone to -27 yesterday



there is government warning there not to go outside unless necessary due to risk of death... they dont mince their words, but only up to this week its been business as usual on all the roads etc and they dont even bother to grit them there. A few inches here and everything grinds to a halt !

I've got to book a hearing test and use a fake name/address as I was there a while back with an eye test. Has anyone in Scotland booked with fake details- do they check up in any way? Do I just make a random address up? I know sometimes it is different here than England with eyetests and hearing tests etc.

I have decided to cancel the two jobs I had today. Just think rude emails which they can not be bothered to sign company! Last year in a supermarket carpark it was chaos for some reason due to the snow (and we ended up directing traffic to get out!) and for the relative small fee on offer for the two jobs today I have for once thought "NO". The main roads are probably clear but to get onto the main roads is not worth it for the fee. I may be a wuss but I am not a stupid wuss, the cost of extra petrol and the thought of being stuck somewhere on a Sunday for the sake of a few pounds is enough to make me a big wuss!

Alas I shall await with glee for the rude email asking how dare I cancel jobs. Hee Hee.

Now who's this? I'm genuinely confused by this particular hint.

I believe they are referring to TNS.

Quick question - do all shoppers signed up to a particular shop site get to see all of the available jobs? Based on the alerts thread I'm sure I don't even though I've been shopping with some of them for some time.
